Himel Bros. - The Ross Mk. 1 Leather Jacket Classic D-pocket motorcycle/aviator style jacket. I heard from the hatter who refurbishes some of my hats that it requires the right touch. It's supposed to be done with a greasy cloth (the recipe for the hatters' grease was one of those trade secrets), wrapped in a pouch of some sort, That is heated up on a hot plate and then applied to the felt in an even circular movement. It's not to be overdone because the felt gets greasy then. There are glimpses of it in some of the older hatting movies on youtube, but I've never seen it done or explained in full.I had to look up the term, hadn't heard it before. I found a general description of the process. Sounds like a technique I tried (wirhout much success) years ago after reading from a book posted online all about hat renovation. It involved coconut oil as well. All I ended up doing then was making a thrift store hat greasy. This info was more detailed, and mentioned special equipment not in the book I saw before. I'd be interested in any progress you make in your research into the matter.
Fortunately, the straw heading your way shouldn't be in need of treatment for a long time!
It's never too late for that hat; beautiful!
A beauty, John. Lots of presence!Hey all!
I was going to wear the Seal Velour today, but this talk of Sharksgill Week made it nervous.
So, I went with this Vanzina of modern manufacture (same sticker as my Borsalino Como) that has the appropriate trim.
Have a great day!

A dark grey. I don't detect green, but then my eyes aren't the best.
